Washington: US-China relations are becoming increasingly tense. China is not shying away from its actions, where its army is engaged in trying to infiltrate India. At the same time, they are also engaged in maneuvers to increase enmity with America. In fact, a US official informed that a Chinese fighter jet has also conducted unnecessarily aggressive maneuvers near a US military aircraft over the South China Sea in international airspace.

The US military command responsible for the Indo-Pacific said in a statement  that the Chinese J-16 aircraft showed maneuvering last week, due to which the US RC-135 aircraft is facing turbulence. The statement said that we are not going to be afraid. The U.S. is going to continue to fly, sail, and act safely and responsibly wherever international law allows.
